That one is included in Laura's collection Stores for Children in Crisis--at
both Laura's website and healingstory.org The title is "How Night Came to
Be." Another favorite death-related tale is the Scottish one I posted on the
Forum, the "Death Appreciation Story" --this was as a follow-up to Gail's
tale, "Outwitting Death" (A widower, who misses his departed wife, thinks
Death has come to get him--and gives Death a good meal on Xmas eve. But it
turns out Death has stopped in simply for the hospitality and has someone
else on his schedule. )
